The Endeavour 30 September 2011

We first spotted the Endeavour in Darwin. Since then it has followed us or we have followed it down the WA coastline. Finally we decided to board the famous replica when it was moored in Geraldton.

The Endeavour.

The Tour was well organised with a volunteer at each post giving a description of life on the Endeavour. Just on the right you can see a part hole called the 'seat of ease ' that was used by the crew to do their 'number twos'. A real down to earth start to the tour.

The mess hall. The rope ends were for wiping their hands after eating the greasy food.
